- Аннотация: We present results of an intensive 2 month campaign of ground-based spectrophotometric monitoring of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 7469, with a temporal resolution \lt~ 1 day. The broad H alpha and H beta emission lines respond to ~35% ultraviolet continuum variations with an amplitude of ~10% and time delays of 5.6 +/- 1.3 days and 5.4 +/- 0.8 days, respectively. We interpret this as evidence of variable Balmer line gas ~5-6 light days from the central source in this object, widely believed to be a supermassive black hole. The virial mass of the central source implied by line widths and time delays is ~106-107 M\sun. Concomitantly, we find evidence for wavelength-dependent continuum time delays: optical continuum variations lag those at 1315 Angstroms by 1.0 +/- 0.3 days at 4865 Angstroms to 1.5 +/- 0.7 days at 6962 Angstroms. This suggests a stratified continuum reprocessing region extending several light days from the central source, possibly an accretion disk.
